One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood. Thus when exposed to the topic whether we should try to keep the friendship when something unhappy occurs, I strongly contend that we should. Nothing will be completely perfect in the world. Everyone was born to be a distinctive individual. We have different family education, growing up experiences, as well as characteristics, which gradually result in our possessing different values. Therefore our tastes and behaviors can never be the same. And thus it is quite acceptable that our friends may do something that we do not like, because they are not us. If we are looking for a friend who will never make us annoyed, we are not going to find one in reality. Besides it’s hardly a fair criticism that our friends have errors. We have never been close to perfect and sometimes it might be our faults. Once I read a short story about how to get along well with each other between two friends. And let’s call one girl Ann and the other Lucy. Ann did not like eating eggs while Lucy did. So every-time when Ann got one egg, she would directly give it to Lucy. However, one day when Ann wanted to have a taste of the egg, she just kept the egg without giving it to Lucy, which made Lucy quite angry. From this story, I think all of us need to ponder deeply over a question whether we have taken what our friends do for us for granted. Besides, a considerate attitude is a must in true friendship. When something unhappy happens, we often tend to blame others. And in most cases, this way will worsen an embarrassing situation. The wise way is to examine ourselves first. Sometimes it is we who need to apologize to our friends. In other cases, if we realize our friends really make mistakes which quite hurt us, it is advisable that we tell them in a harmless way. I believe this is the most desirable method which can deepen our friendship, enable our friends to perfect themselves as well as make us more popular. Finally, friends are lights in winter: the older the friend, the brighter the light. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said “It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them”. Old friends are our valuable treasures. They are the ones who know our merits and demerits, who encourage us when we get depressed, who pick us up when we fall down, and who will company us when we are alone. If one day, they offend us by doing something we do not like, what we are supposed to do is figuring out what’s wrong with our friendship and doing our best to continue it instead of just blaming our friends or breaking up the friendship. In a word, friendship will probably never be perfect, but that’s a small price to pay for what it does offer and we need to be responsible for maintaining it no matter what happens. 4 月 1 日托福听力真题回忆： Conversation1 话題分类: professor and student 学生询问了推荐信的事情，但是这不是重点，后来开始谈论一个叫"GreenGreen Building Tour"Green的项目，这个女生要参加，所以向教授询问一些相关内容，教授 介绍说了这些建筑的特色，着重讲了一个叫"GreenPump-heat system"Green的技术等，正 因为为了展示这个技术，这个项目才在冬天举行了。后来学生说可不可以参观 fitness center.教授说这没啥特色。 Conversation2 话题分类: professor and student 学生和教授就一个作业展开对话。学生要写一个关于城堡的小论文，但是不知道 怎么组识,以及参考文献格式。教授询问他已经做的一些研究状况,最后教授建议 他参加一 weekly workshop,可以得到关于参考文献格式的介绍和小册子。 Lecture 1 学科分类: Architecture 教授介绍了一本建筑书籍，作者 Ed Bacon (enough food20th),他是 20th 世纪人，贡献有建 造老城区及复兴 society hill 主张建筑与周围环境协调并考虑居住者的感受，他 也受到其他建筑家的影响。 Lecture 2 标題: 历史遗迹不能说明一切，有时候还原的不一定是真相 中世纪早期历史遗迹 Yeavering vs 古罗马时期历史遗迹 Bradley Hill。前者为木 质茅草顶，不结实，所以留存下来的很少，瓷器色泽与土相近，不容易被发现。 后者的建筑多为混凝土,屋顶为瓦，很结实故留存下来的多，瓷器闪闪发光因此 很容易被发现。 Lecture 3 学科分类：Biology 标题：土地用途改变产生的影响 juniper 得以扩张的原因及危害。 Lecture 4 学科分类: Biology 标題: Coral reef 2)珊瑚的生存条件 3 )珊瑚面临的问题 bleaching 4)如何保护珊瑚 Conversation3 学生感谢教授让他论文延期的事情，后来重点讨论的其实是学生参加的一个 "GreenMarket Planning"Green小组项目。说到其进程，学生说还没完，教授就说是不是有 组员没有努力做，学生说没有。但任务置分配的不合理,别的同学有的任务都做 完了但他的却做不完，教授让他把自己的任务再细分，让别人分担一些。 Lecture5： 学科分类：Meteorology 标题：Cloud-seeding 的过程 涉及术语-Bergeron process Lecture6： 对比 Expressionism 与 Realism，以及 Expressionism 在 theatre 的体现，play script。 4 月 1 日托福阅读真题回忆： Passage one 题目：Increasing Jellyfish Population 第 1 段：Whether we should worry about the increasing jellyfish population or not.
